Hubby brought me some treats to work – a mini cinnamon roll and a piece of butterscotch scuffin. They made for a great lunch dessert.

Sidenote: these shoes really pissed me off today. They looked so comfy but they were so not! I couldn’t wait to change shoes by the time I got home. Blech! I’ve had such bad luck with shoe buying the last few times. They look comfy…they feel pretty comfortable when I try them on, but wear them long distance and…not so much.

These had what I think was a plastic interior lining that just started rubbing my feet the wrong way. 🙁

Thank goodness we shared food because we had so much! I ended up taking a lot of my salad home. I downed the delicious black bean burger (great flavors there!) and ate up all those yummy sweet potato fries. Another wonderful Big Daddy’s meal…hoorah!

Neither Cindi nor Caitlin had been to Yoforia before, so when we started discussing sharing a spiked milkshake, I suggested froyo as another option.

Froyo won out! (photo courtesy Caitlin)

We grabbed a sweet spot outside near a fountain to soak up the warm weather.

I ended up getting the plain original tart yogurt with blueberries, strawberries, kiwi, pineapple and my fave Yorforia topping – the coconut! So tasty!

Did I mention I got to meet Maggie and James?! They are the cutest little doggies. I hope they can become good friends with Bailey!

Not a fan of fried pickles, but ya got to try them once! I do love froyo though 🙂 Looks like such fun! My feet are very sensitive. You have to try aerosoles, they are the most comfy work-type shoes I’ve gotten.

I love fried pickles! Here in Texas, they fry EVERYTHING! Every year at the State Fair it’s a huge Fry Fest; fried cheese, fried Coke, fried Grilled Cheese (yes! one year they fried a whole grilled cheese sandwich).
I love your blog! I’ve been following it for quite a while and finally wanted to comment! I love that you eat healthy food, but also include very realistic treats every once in awhile (like donut holes, my fave) I just started a blog with another dietitian and I’d love it if you could check it out some time!

I am a shoe addict and have way too many shoes and I have had that problem in the past where they feel fine, but a few hours after wearing them, they HURT BAD! I have found that if I want to counteract that, I have to make sure that the shoes are made of leather and are of high quality. I tend to by my shoes at Nordstroms or Lord&Taylor. The brands I would recommend are Burberry, Franco Sarto, Steve Madden, Louis Vuitton, and other similar brands. Good Luck finding comfy shoes!! 🙂

J. Crew shoes never have worked for me – they are notoriously painful (but really pretty!)

I also recommend Sofft, as they are stylish and super-comfy. And Indigo by Clarks has been surprising my lately with some of their chic-er styles which are also super-comfy. I also like White Mountain, but they are very hit or miss with their styles.

I have one pair of J Crew shoes that I can literally wear all day! They are amazing. Then I have another couple that are too painful to wear all day. I think it has to do with them using different manufacturers or something…at least that’s my problem with Banana Republic. lol 🙂
